Hello Universe!

My name is Claudia, and I’m obscenely horny today.

It’s actually kind of frightening.

I spent the afternoon doing regression and then writing smut that only I would enjoy. And then I daydreamt about all the stuff that’s too disturbing to even reach the “smut” level that goes on in my head. I have issues.

And UBC needs to have a shirtless day, for students and professors. Hell, there’s a nude beach steps from the campus…we can at least have a shirtless day.

Also:

I honestly don’t think it’s possible to make a bad remix or cover of this song. That violin is fucking fantastic.

Also also:

I’m pissed off at both iTunes and Paypal. Why do they make it so difficult to change bank accounts/use a different country’s iTunes store? I had this whole huge rant planned out for this, but I’m really too horny to think about anything aside from how horny I am.

Blah.

Today’s song: Sleepyhead, Passion Pit’s song covered by Run Toto Run

 

Huh…wouldn’t have guess this

StumbleUpon brought me to Wikipedia’s page on the “Latin honors” for college degrees. Not only did I find out Australia has two different levels of failure (off the “grade” page…and here I must interject: “WTF, mate?”), but the “see also” section also provided me with this.

I found this rather interesting, considering that for the majority of colleges, the U of I’s cutoff points for summa/magna/cum laude are higher than all of these listed. Maybe ‘cause UI is such a small school (SMALL SAMPLE SIZE = RANGE RESTRICTION) they felt the need to have such high cutoff points…who knows.

Haha, sorry, I like this kind of stuff. Had they provided more colleges, I would have made some sort of map to see how the different regions of the US compared in honors cutoffs. Bah.

Also this, ‘cause I found it freakishly funny (and interesting), especially since they were all cracking up the entire time:

Today’s song: Echo by Girls Can’t Catch

A very intriguing video from our friend YouTube

And this is all I have to say for today.

This really got to me for some reason.

Today’s song: Evacuate the Dancefloor by Cascada

SHAMWOW (no, it’s not another Omegle conversation, don’t worry)

As much as Rube Goldberg tortured me my senior year of high school, this music video is really snazzy. I love all the crashes and bangs throughout, it’s great. So is the song.



Today’s song: This Too Shall Pass by OK Go

Tukey is not a lunch meat

DECIET AND LIES, it doesn’t stop raining long enough to make time lapses that fail to include rain!

Unless this was taken in the summer, in which case I can’t say anything yet. The “this rain is constant and is beating your soul into the gutter” weather was slowly dying down when I left yesterday. And that rolling fog thing happens on campus every once and awhile.
Haha, I like how I get back here and then watch time-lapses of the city I just came from.

 Today’s song: War by Mean Tambourines

MEN’S FIGURE SKATING = BEST THING EVER

Haha, I like how I left Vancouver and now I’m at home watching the Olympics on TV. Funny.

Men’s figure skating is my favorite event. Always has been.

And JOHNNY WEIR’S BACK! I FREAKING LOVE Johnny Weir. Why? Example:

SO sexy. Words cannot describe. The fact that he’s skating to Lady GaGa doesn’t help.

Also, Evgeni Plushenko is gorgeous. Haha, sorry, I need a boyfriend.

Today’s song: Mr. Pitiful by Matt Costa

 

God, do you people remember these?

“I got boob tonight!”

Today’s song: Symphony 1 in The Barrel of a Gun by Emily Wells

Absurdity

So thanks to the entirety of the Social/Personality area going off to Vegas for a “conference” (read: partying and hookers), I spent today doing regression homework, freaking out, and watching YouTube videos

I honestly don’t know what’s so great about this, but there’s something that is. I don’t know if it’s the music, the buildup, the obscene noise it makes when he finally runs over the bubble wrap, or the intriguing question of whether they acquired a steamroller for something else and decided to crush some bubblewrap with it, or acquired a steamroller solely to crush some bubblewrap. I just couldn’t stop laughing.

The sound when he hits the wall and the subsequent sound when he hits the floor…oh my god, it had me on the floor laughing. This is probably due to the fact that this is something my old friend Ross would (and probably did) attempt.

I also watched quite a few “Is it a Good Idea to Microwave This?” videos. The airbag one is great, check it out.

That is all.

Today’s song: Sweet Dreams by Eurythmics (yeah, I know, I’m a loser for not having this song already)

Waiter! There’s Godot in my post-modern humorous play!

TWO POINTS!

One: It’s really hard to work on stats/research/other technical stuff when I have a very strong urge to do something creative. Another problem involves the fact that I don’t know whether to write, draw, make flash, take pictures, or do something involving nudity.

Two: This is an amazingly cool music video with an amazingly cool song to go with it. I can’t get either one out of my head, so here ya go:

You might as well expect a lot of music videos now that I must download a song a day.

Today’s song: White Winter Hymnal by Fleet Foxes

You can lead a tree to a forest, but you can’t make it fall

Three points of interest today:

1. I’m damn good at Wii Sports, so long as it isn’t bowling. I kicked ASS at canoeing!

2. This made me happy.

3. I forgot how good “Honey, I Shrunk the Kids!” was. Rick Moranis is sexy, I’m not gonna lie. :)

Today’s song: Turn It Up by Nick Kamen

 

Hammer Time is the fifth dimension

Woohoo, DENSITY PLOTS!

And guess what data I’m using?!

I took a few of the genres out because there were only one/two songs for them, but the remaining ones are all from my top 50. Bet you can guess which point is Sleepyhead.

ALSO THIS:

The most beautiful live performance I’ve ever seen. Thank you, StumbleUpon, for leading me to the song I downloaded yesterday, for it led me to this one.

Today’s song: Flightless Bird, American Mouth (Live) by Iron and Wine

 

Math Rock: aka WHAT THE HELL

Oh math rock, you crazy, crazy genre. I think every single band gets weirder and weirder.

Wait until you see the hearts. THERE ARE SO MANY HEARTS.

This video scared the crap out of me. But it was also intriguing enough for me to seek out some of their other videos, some of which included flaming teacups, flaming shoes, dancing mime women, and weird sweaters.

Today’s song (surprisingly not this one): Disorganized Fun by Ronald Jenkees

 

A good way to free the soul

So I’ve linked to this guy’s 2008 remix before, but his 2009 remix is pretty awesome too, so I’ll just link to all three he’s done, so you can get a good dose of awesome remix happiness before the new year.

2007

2008

2009



This just made my year

This is FREAKING AWESOME!!!!

Hooray, I’m back in Moscow!

HOLY FREAKING CRAP! Must resist urge to spam www.ihatebutterflies.com with this.

Must…resist…urge…

SEIZURE TREE!!!!

FREAKING FANTASTIC!

“Hell no! Hell no! Hell noooooooooooo!”

Way too catchy. I never thought I’d be singing about Michael Jackson’s death in the shower.

This had me laughing. So hard.

Colin Mochrie is so freaking hilarious. I love how Ryan just loses it completely a few times.

Numa Numa Song + Marching Band = Bliss

This…this is awesome on almost every single scale on which awesome can be measured

I love how almost the entire audience in front of the guy taping is doing the arm thing.

This just made my month.

BUS CENTRIFUGE!

This song rocks.

Give this man a medal!

So many puns, so little time. So awesome.

HELLO GOOD SIR JUST STOPPING IN TO TELL YOU HOW AWESOME LEIBNIZ IS PIP PIP TALLY HO

So apparently there’s a Monad Constructors here. They also have Choco Leibniz at the Safeway on 4th.

Two Leibniz references in one day make me a happy camper.

ALSO:

Legitimate statements or not, that music’s badass.

If Newton falls in the forest and Leibniz is watching, does he throw a party?

Nice.

 

I don’t know what to make of this

This is sad. But that shaking cardinal is the cutest thing ever.

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

I don’t know about you all, but this is why I use Internet Explorer.
